A dessert | that is always at the top of my list
Before important meetings, interviews & occasions, I do rely heavily on the magical power of a brownie: to give me sufficient energy to perform well & to make it until the end of the session. Brownies are an important part of my life! ❤️ So I have put certain effort to perfect them or at least try to.
So it’s an important part of my life and I did spend some time to perfect it and still working on it and its different versions/variations. Some are made with dark chocolate that i like so much, some with a milkier one and some others its a combination of some other ingredients i.e. caramel, coconut etc.
🤔Maybe one of my best versions of milk chocolate 🍫 based brownies with caramel ❤️ that were topped up with some cream cheese frosting leftovers that contain passion fruit, mango 🥭, coconut 🥥 & pineapple 🍍 & a splash of lime to make something even better ❤️
.
💡the fat from the cheese has the properties to absorb the smells from the fridge. Ensure to prevent this from happening by covering it or storing your desserts in airtight containers
Try this version Brownie Cheesecake that is creamy, dense, flavoursome and really easy to make.
